Diagrams

• Any number of diagrams on one page and any number of datasets in one diagram.

• Diagrams with one or more x- and y-axis.

• Diagram size and position can be specified in centimeters with true scaling, e.g. 1 centimeter equals 20Nm.

• Axes can be scaled ascending and descending.

• Extensive settings for gridlines, tick marks and axis titles and labels.

• Automaticallly or manually scaled axes.

• Date/Time axes scaling.

• Log axes scaling.

• Square axes scaling.

• Use text for tick labels.

• Polar diagram.

• Waterfall diagram.

2D Line Plots

• Mark data points with symbols and droplines.

• Connect points with straight or curved lines (spline, smoothing, regression or nonlinear curve fitting).

• Dash-Dotted lines with adjustable line thicknesses and user defined patterns.

• Color and hatch filling underneath a curve.

• Area between curves can be color and hatch filled.

• Ajustable hatchline distance, line thickness and color.

• Horizontal oder vertical bargraphs.

• Automatic creation of editable legends.

• Upper and lower hull curve.

• Data smoothing to reduce signal noise.

• Linear or logarithmic axis scaling.

• Datapoints can be labeled.

• Data Cursor.

Contour Maps

• Automatic or manual distribution of isolines (z-levels).

• Insertion or deletion of isolines and labels with one mouseclick.

• Set line style (type, width, color) for one or more isolines or for a range of isolines.

• Color fill between isolines.

• Color scale bar.

• Adjustment of isoline labels to the isoline gradient. They can be plotted with a frame and in the same color as the isolines.

• Calculation of isoline areas.

• Cross section of contour maps for x=const, y=const or along any curve.

• WOT curves can be used as a data hull. Points of the WOT curve can be labeled.

• The contour map data hull can be freely defined. The hull can contain islands.

• Splines for isolines and WOT curve.

• Any number of 2D and 3D datasets can be plotted in one x/y diagram (i.e. power and consumption maps).

• The data can be drawn as a scatter plot. Extreme values (minimum and maximum) can be marked.

• Linear, non-linear and Thin Plate Spline gridding methods and data smoothing.

3D Surface Maps

• Mesh plots with or without hidden line removal.

• Surface mesh can be clipped at the data hull, set to "0" outside the hull or extrapolated to the edge of the diagram.

• 3D surface grid lines correspond to the axis division marks.

• Draw isolines on surface.

• Orthographic or perspective projection.

• Bilinear or spline interpolation to change the number of columns and rows of matrices.

Drawing Objects

• Draw lines, arrows, rectangles and ellipses.

• Multi-line text objects with centered, right or left justification.

• Grouping drawing objects to a single unit.

• Send to back, send to front, drag and resize, copy, cut, alignment drawing objects.

• Adjustable element attributes: color fill (solid or gradient), shadow, size, position, round edges etc.

• Adjustable snap to grid for easy mouse editing.

• Protect objects from accidental mouse changes.

• Insert pictures (JPG, BMP, GIF, PNG, BMZ, EMF, EMZ, WMF, WMZ).

• OLE server and container. Insert UniPlot diagrams into other Windows applications or insert graphics, tables, text etc. into UniPlot documents.

• If LaTeX is installed it can be used to insert formula text.

Data Handling

• Fast data browser. Up to 10000 channels. Rows only limited by file size of 2 GB.

• Channels can have different data types (4 and 8 byte float, 8-, 16- and 32-Bit integer, date/time. Strings).

• "Missing-Values".

• Filter, sort channels.

• Add, Transform channels using the formula interpreter.

• Insert/delete/edit of gloabel attributes or channel attributes.

• Delete channels or rows.

• Freeze columns.

• Create Excel Reports.

• The Browser can be extended by user defined functions.

• Import ASCII- or Microsoft-Excel (incl. Excel 2007), VS100/INCA-, dBase-, Lotus-, FEVIS-, Combi-, IFILE-, netCDF-, MATLAB and other Data formats. New filters can be added using the build in language UniScript Data base access e.g. via ADO or DAO.

• Import time signals (1D data).

• Import x/y data curves (2D data).

• Import irregularly distributed 3D data.

• Import equidistantly distributed matrix data.

UniScript Programming Language

• UniScript is a matrix orientated interpreter with a C-like syntax.

• Add new functions to UniPlot.

• Automate repetitive tasks.

• Analyse and transform data.

• Functions to alter menus and to create dialog boxes. Dialog boxes can contain text, edit fields, list boxes, combo boxes and check boxes.

• Trigonometric, sort, search, read and write (ASCII, Excel, binary) functions.

• Linear algebra (inverse, eigenvalues, determinants etc. - these functions build on BLAS/LAPACK/LINPACK routines).

• FFT and iFFT.

• Systems of ordinary differential equations.

• Fitting splines.
